7th CPC recommendations for Assistant Research Officers

With a cadre strength of 68 employees, the cadre of Research officers in the Central Hindi Directorate (CHD) is responsible for preparing the corpus for lexicographical assignments and curriculum for correspondence courses. Their cadre structure is as under:

The educational qualification required for the post of ARO is Master’s Degree plus three years’ experience in teaching or research.

Their association has demanded better pay scales on grounds of historical parity with
University Lecturers.

Analysis and Recommendations : At the outset, it should be made clear that University Lecturers do not fall under the ambit of the Commission and they follow a pay structure that is different from Central Government employees. For e.g. their pay structure includes Grade Pays of ₹6000, ₹7000, ₹8000, ₹9000, etc. which are not present in the current pay structure of Central Government employees. Hence, any comparison with them would not be appropriate.

The Commission also notes that the post of Research Officer, which was hitherto in GP 4800, was upgraded and merged with the post of Assistant Director (L) recently, in June, 2014. No further change in the structure is now warranted. Accordingly, no recommendations are made.

I hold a post of Senior Technical Assistani( Mining Engineering) in Indian Bureau of Mines, Ministry of Mines whose grade pay upgraded from 4200 to 4600. I have joined in this post on 10.6.1986 and acquired ACP-I in promotional post having GP 4600, then acquired MACP-I in GP 4800.
7th CPC fixation has been granted as pb Rs 217540➕ GP 4800 multiplied by 2.57 and then fixed at Rs. 70,000 in level 8.
I have not been granted any benefit of upgradation at entry level.
What should be my correct fixation? Please comment because no one has given solution to fixation for upgraded post who acquired ACP / MACP in the past.
